1800 H10C FR02 PCGS

With a meager mintage of 70,000, the 1800 Draped Bust, Heraldic Eagle half dime stands as a testament to its era, with only an estimated 400 survivors. As part of the brief five-date series, the Draped Bust, Heraldic Eagle half dime holds a unique place in U.S. Numismatics as one of the shortest series. Collecting this series in circulated grades proves to be a challenging endeavor, and the present example, still bearing outlines of liberty on the obverse and a full eagle design on the reverse, reflects the resilience of its design. This coin presents an affordable option for collectors, especially those aiming to complete a circulated type set that includes the Draped Bust, Heraldic Eagle half dime. Notably, this example is tied for the second-lowest grade. The spot at 11 o'clock is a testament to the time this coin spent in circulation. While recent comparables are non-existent for FR02, a G06 sold for $1,680 06/21 HA, and a NGC VG10 fetched $3,120 09/23 HA, underscoring the value of this well-preserved piece and how this present example is the most affordable problem-free 1800 H10C one can acquire.
